A step above going simply going Incognito.

When you think about it, it’s actually shocking that it took this long for for a porn site to come up with their own VPN.

Like all VPNs — short for virtual private network — Pornhub’s new VPNhub will allow users a secure way to mask their online activity. Announced by Pornhub on Thursday, the VPN will encrypt all the data that you send and receive online, as well as hide your real IP location by allowing you the option of choosing a virtual location based on VPNhub’s more than 1000 servers in over 15 countries.

This technology can directly benefit online porn: If you’re in a country that bans certain kinds of sexy content online, a VPN allows you to change your location and circumvent the ban. Not too shabby for Pornhub’s business model.

Privacy is also always at risk for anyone using public wifi. “Today, the internet is rife with hackers, who are growing in number and sophistication, compromising people’s sensitive data,” said Pornhub’s Vice President Corey Price in a statement. “While browsing in incognito may keep users’ browsing history secret, truth is they’re still susceptible to prying eyes, especially when browsing on unsecured public Wi-Fi networks.”

VPNhub will allow you a worry-free way to watch  porn on public wifi. Try not to think about all the people watching porn on public wifi.

Considering Pornhub gets 90 million visitors a day, this VPN network could really take off if every horny person got into it.

Being a US-based company, the VPN won’t work in Myanmar, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria, where Pornhub is not allowed to do business. The company says it also has reports the VPN might not work in Quatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, and China. Which is kind of a drag.

The VPNhub is available for iOS, Android, Windows, and MacOS, however the Windows version and MacOS desktop version are only for premium subscribers. The premium version, according to Pornhub, features faster speeds, 24/7 support, no adds, and the ability to choose the country you’re “located in.” That will set you back $12.99 a month.

VPNhub maintains that it won’t store, collect, sell, or transmit personal info to third parties — however, its privacy policy states that it may share aggregate or non-personally identifiable information with non-affiliated third parties for advertising, marketing or research purposes.

“VPNhub is the easiest and safest way to access your favorite websites from anywhere you are,” VPNhub boasts. Especially if your favorite websites are the ones with porn!
